Gov Spencer Cox [View all]

“For 33 hours, I was praying that if this had to happen here that it wouldn't be one of us — that somebody drove from another state, somebody came from another country… Sadly, that prayer was not answered the way I hoped for… But it did happen here, and it was one of us,”


Those were the words on Utah Governor Spencer Cox.
The middle-aged, white, bald, male, Christian, stood at a podium, in front of cameras and uttered those words with not a thought to their implications.
These people are fucking stunningly incompetent and shamelessly racist and xenophobic.
Apparently living up to CK's memory without having to even try hard.
